Can you feel the love? I can't believe the response to my original post. A few interested parties of course, but the number of PMs saying "WTF are you doing?!" has made me realise that getting rid of this bass would probably be something I'd regret for the rest of my days. So, with apologies to those who were interested in the bass, I think we'll end the feeler status here; please consider the bass withdrawn. Thanks to all Gareth

[quote name='cetera' post='424270' date='Mar 3 2009, 04:18 PM']Gareth.... WTF?!?!?!?!!!! Why would you consider letting this baby go? Everything OK?[/quote] Yes, not to worry I'm all okay. I am really not sure I want to sell, but given the lack of gigs and the amount of money tied up in this bass it at least makes sense to test the water. I'm not going to give it up cheaply.

Sorry for teasing you folks. Now withdrawn.

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='420899' date='Feb 27 2009, 01:58 PM']I got made redundant for the third time in 12 months today so it seems like I'm probably going to be leaving the UK if I want to escape the shadow of job insecurity. Besides which I potentially face a rental bill for 6 months minimum term.[/quote] Sorry to hear that CK.

PM sent for the Schroeder.

And sold...

I like the look of it but need it to handle small/medium gigs![/quote] Where are you located? You're welcome to come and try it out if you are anywhere near Hampshire?

I like the look of it but need it to handle small/medium gigs![/quote] Hard to say as I've only used it at one rehearsal against a drummer, keyboard player and two acoustic guitars going through the PA. It was plenty loud enough for that.

I want to buy the mini Schroeder that's for sale on here at the mo, so I need to shift this first. You can get all the details from the [url="http://www.eaamps.com/product_detail.asp?ID=289"]EA website[/url]. I've only had it since the beginning of January and it is totally mint and ungigged, and it also comes with the very groovy backpack that EA make for it, details of which can be found [url="http://www.gollihurmusic.com/product/1602-EA_BACKPACK_FOR_MICRO_300_AND_WIZZY_10.html"]here[/url]. Cheers Gareth

Hi Chris Can I have first dibs on the Wal when you decide to sell it? Cheers Gareth

[quote name='Gwilym' post='410065' date='Feb 15 2009, 02:18 PM']hi Gareth - what gauge are they - are the the "Burner" nickel set?[/quote] Yep, those are the fellas. Mediums so 45-65-85-105-130 IIRC. Of interest?

Ken Smith tapercore nickel set of interest Gwil?

[quote name='jmesa' post='402248' date='Feb 6 2009, 06:32 PM']Having recently fallen back in love with my Mesa 6x10, I figure I don't need 2 stupidly large cabinets...[/quote] I so wanted this a while back, when it was the 610 you were selling, but have moved on now... Best of luck with the sale. At that price it should fly out the door.

Oh wow, walnut and fretless, my favourite combination...
